Sounds like a good idea to me that you package the OWT fork of the 
WebRTC library collection.

I recommend to then choose a package name which indicates the fork 
packaged, to make room for eventual later packaging of other forks as 
well (e.g. it might make sense for the Mozilla fork to be packaged as 
regular packages reusable by others instead of only embedded with 
firefox and firefox-esr as it is today).

Concretely I propose the package name "libwebrtc-owt".

Sorry, I don't know about those details, so cannot sensibly advice you 
on them.  Maybe as such questions to debian-devel@lists.debian.org (and 
try expand the question to make sense also for people not already 
familiar with the details - or at least add links to places with more 
details).

It sounds like those are tracking mechanisms (or can be aboused as 
such), and I would recommend that you try make them optional in your 
packaging - e.g. if possible to build with or without such features then 
consider making 2 binary packages, so that users can choose to install 
packages _without_ such mechanisms baked in - even if maybe for your own 
needs those features are needed.

If you are interested in such privacy concerns, you might also want to 
look at https://wiki.debian.org/PrivacyIssues - and update that page 
with any additional information you may be aware of.

Sounds good that you are in touch :-)

Good luck with the packaging and maintenance work,
